New mixed-use district planned around Toyota Stadium in Frisco

Hunt Sports Development has partnered with Peak Curated Development and Venu Holding Corporation to develop a mixed-use district on the east side of Toyota Stadium and Soccer Center in Frisco.

What we know: The first phase of the planned project will feature an approximately 290-room boutique hotel and more than 40,000 square feet of convention, event and meeting space.

The mixed-use development’s “highly flexible” convention center will feature more than 25,000 square feet of meeting space, including a 15,000-square-foot ballroom that can be converted into a music hall or live entertainment venue with capacity for up to 3,000 people.

The mixed-use district accounts for more than $1 billion in private investment and could funnel visitors and revenue into Frisco’s Rail District and support small businesses, city officials previously said.

The development is slated for groundbreaking in 2027.
